New Delhi, May 19 (SocialNews.XYZ) A special court here on Thursday dismissed the interim bail application of Avantha Group promoter Gautam Thapar, who was arrested in connection with the alleged misappropriation of a Rs 515 crore loan from Yes Bank.
The Special Judge, Rouse Avenue Court Complex has dismissed the interim bail application of Thapar, which was filed on medical grounds, citing his deteriorating health.
